I intend to add UCM/ZWave to my system and i am totally new in Z-Wave world.
As i understood from UCM/Zwave manual, i need a pripary controller to include Zwave devices into my system.
Can anyone suggest me a cheap ZWave primary controller, from that i can, then, copy the config to UCM/Zwave?

You can take a remote, such as the qees for that.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good primary controller for Zwave?

We have tested some models eg ACT (not recommended), Merten, Minimote, Aeon (not good as it reqiuires software to do association), MK?

What are some other good ones?

Hello Chiu,
i\'ve abandoned the Z-Wave world. I\'m stick only to UCM/KNX and Comfort shines with that. I\'ve no suggestion for ZWave, sorry.

The Vera Edge has been recommended as a good Primary controller that can be used with Comfort

If you want to experiment with Z-Wave and Comfort without too much expenditure then a wall switch/controller (e.g. http://www.vesternet.com/z-wave-popp-wallcontroller) and an on/off socket is a good start. However, although Z-Wave devices work \"out of the box\" probably at some stage you will want to configure some device parameters and then you will need a different Primary Controller. I am now experimenting with Vera Edge which (so far) seems to fit the bill.

Hello
I have just had Comfort 2 installed with ZWave UCM. I also have the Vera Edge. How do I get Vera Edge to add device so Comfort can learn ZWave network.
Please help on which device to select to add or what option I go into on the Vera Edge screen

If I recall ...... the Vera edge had a list of \'Alarms\' with a pull down menu with different alarm manufacturers.....
Would it not be possible to get Comfort listed !

I doubt those are actual alarm systems. do you have a list of alarm manufacturers ?
